Chapoutier, Saint-Joseph Granits Vintage:2001 it delivers a good coreFeatures lovely high pitched streaks of lavender and white pepper throughout, while the core of steeped cherry and plum fruit waits in reserve. A long, refined mineral edge drives the finish, adding energy and cut. Best from 2020 through 2030. 407 cases made, 57 cases imported. JM
